Or if you’d like to put some real distance between yourself and the Happiest Place on Earth, you could then head up to San Francisco. Where Tony Baxter – along with former Disneyland presidents Jack Lindquist & Matt Ouimet – will be holding court at the Walt Disney Family Museum. As these three discuss the development of Disneyland as well as this theme park’s impact on
America.

Now what makes this anniversary event a must-see (besides the fact that it’s a fundraiser for a really great organization: The Children’s Hospital of Orange County) is that it’s a celebration of Disneyland music. Which means that – while you’re dining on that Free Range Breast of Chicken & Vegetable Ratatouille – you’ll be entertained by some of the most talented performers to ever play at that theme park. Among them the Dapper Dans, Rod Miller and Billy Hill & the Hillbillies.

Best of all, you don’t actually have to be a member of the Disneyland Alumni Club in order to be able to attend “55 Years of Music Magic.” All you need to take part in this particular musical journey through Disney's dream park is appropriate evening attire. And $95.00 per person.

Which – I know – sounds kind of pricey. But did I mention that every attendee will walk away with a keepsake wine glass as well as a souvenir program? And that Ron Dominguez, Roy P. Disney and Ron Logan will also be making appearances at this event? Or that the price of your ticket will be tax
deductible?

Know this, though: Tickets will not be sold at the door for the Disneyland Alumni Club’s 55th reunion. So if you'd like to attend this celebration of Disneyland music, you’re going to need to order your tickets to “55 Years of Music Magic” in advance. Which you can do by clicking on this link.

Just be aware that – while all of the other events that are being held on July 17th are special – the Disneyland Alumni Club’s 55th reunion really is going to be a once-in-a-lifetime event. So if you’re a Disneyana fan and are going to be in the Orange County area around this same time, you should definitely consider buying a ticket to this CHOC Children’s fundraiser.
